On auction from Sotheby’s the jewels of Vivien Leigh, the protagonist of Gone with the wind ♦ ︎
Gone with the wind, gone with the memories, gone with the auction. The memories, objects, and jewels belonging to Vivien Leigh, the eternal interpreter of Scarlett O’Hara’s character in Gone With Wind, go to Sotheby’s auction. On September 26, the auction house sells 250 lots in London. Among them jewelry such as the floral ring that the actress wore at her marriage to actor Laurence Olivier in 1940. The ring wrote in “Laurence Olivier Vivien Eternally” (the estimate is 400-600 pounds ). Unfortunately, the union was not eternal: the couple began the relationship in 1936, but divorced in 1960, seven years before the death of Vivien Leigh. Among the jewels is a diamond brooch (estimated 25,000-35,000 pounds) of SJ Phillips and a 1940s bracelet with pendants as a miniature book, marked with the name of Leigh and her character Scarlett O’Hara.
